Development Of Innovative System Research Articles

Prospective directions of state support of the national innovation system of Russia

The article presents an original methodology for selecting the most popular measures of state support of the national innovation system of a country with usage of numerical methods of clustering. The clustering methodology is based on a combination of indexes: Global Innovation Index, Gross Natural Income and Human Development Index. In the lists of countries and their corresponding clusters obtained as a result of empirical analysis, the most demanded measures of state support of the national innovation system were identified on the base of retrospective dynamics of Global Innovation Index indicators characterizing the state support of the national innovation system. For the obtained indicators of the Global Innovation Index, recommendations were given for the direction of development of the national innovation system of Russia. Classical clustering methods were used as analysis instruments: Density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise and K-Means, The Silhouette Coefficient implemented in the sklearn library of Python programming language was used as a quality metric.

Enterprise Reforms and Innovation as Key Drivers of The Socialism With Chinese Characteristics

This article synthetically presents the key arguments and finding of a recent book of mine (Enterprises, Industry and Innovation in the People’s Republic of China: Questioning Socialism from Deng to the Trade and Tech War, Springer, 2020) on the gradual evolution of enterprise forms since the inception of rural and industrial reforms and the development of a modern innovation system in China. The book focuses mainly on the multi-causal processes of change occurring in the underlying socioeconomic relations of production and exchange, which cannot be adequately interpreted as a pure manifestation of the simple State–Market opposition. In fact, the complex and evolutionary interactions between state-led industrial and other development-oriented policies, on the one hand, and (relatively) automatic market mechanisms working in a quasi-by-default manner, on the other hand, constitute the essence of China’s distinctive economic model. From an epistemological perspective, the conceptual foundations of my work are those of the Classics and of the Marxian tradition, with the twin categories of the mode of production and socioeconomic formation as basic starting points. I try to partly re-interpreted these foundations taking into account the lessons of historical experience, as tools that can help—along with other ones—to understand twenty-first-century complex socioeconomic systems.

Towards generative design in the development of mechatronic integrated devices (MID)

The spatial integration of mechanical and electrical components is a key enabler for the development of innovative cyber-physical systems. These Mechatronic Integrated Devices (MID) are necessary to meet the increased demands for miniaturization and functional integration. At the same time, the development complexity of these products as well as the dependencies of the production technologies increase. Product and production process must be developed integratively from the outset. The development of MIDs is supported by cross-domain development methods (e.g. VDI2206). However, the generation of solutions is often accompanied by individual solutions such as construction tools for 3D geometry design, routing on spatial surfaces and 2D logic planning for the topology of the mechanics. On the basis of initial domain-specific solutions, a complex, highly iterative optimization process takes place, in which the MID components are adapted to geometric and production-specific conditions. Generative Design offers a promising approach for the automation of design tasks. However, this approach is used outside of architecture only in mechanical designs and does not allow the automation of design aspects of complex multi-domain components like MID. This paper presents an initial approach towards the use of Generative Design in the development of Mechatronic Integrated Devices. The focus is to develop a hybrid design systematic that allows the (partially) automated evolvement of MID components based on a product specification and solution elements to be integrated. The Generative Design process is initiated by the specification of product requirements and constraints (e.g. existing mechanical solution elements). A knowledge base formalized via ontology is used to create a principle solution. Based on an initially generated population the biological-inspired evolution is triggered. Design variants are first synthesized together with 3D routing and then selected based on fitting functions. Satisfactorily evaluated MID variants are continuously mutated and recombined until the final design is created.

Municipal Heat Energy of Ukraine - Adaptation to Global Warming

Rising global temperatures have exacerbated the problems of adaptation to climate change in various sectors of the economy, including municipal energy. Therefore, the task is to develop measures and mechanisms, the implementation of which will guarantee cost-effective comfortable and reliable heat and cold supply of buildings and structures in climate change. Experimental studies of heat transfer and monitoring of thermal regimes in enclosing structures and building elements were conducted with the development of innovative engineering systems for energy supply of a passive house of the "zero-energy" type. Experimental developments of innovative energy-efficient greenhouse gas-reducing technologies and equipment for energy supply systems of buildings have been performed and their architectural and construction solutions for adaptation to climate change have been optimized. In order to expand and deepen the theory and practice of improving the energy efficiency of buildings in the near future, the scientific priority and subject of basic and applied research have been identified. Developed adaptive to climate change innovative, energy efficient technologies and equipment of engineering systems of energy supply of buildings with the use of renewable energy sources can be used in the practice of energy supply of housing and communal services.

The National Innovative System Development Strategy as the Institutional Framework of Sustainable Development: Features and Risks of Russian Model

This article is concerned with the features of the Russian national innovative system as the set of related various institutional structures in the context of the impact on the national sustainable development. The ability to quickly and efficiently master innovations, the speed of institutional changes and the openness of the economic system are analyzed as risks to the NIS development. It is shown that the low innovation susceptibility of society can become a serious obstacle on the way to the effective NIS. A range of issues related to the influence of political and sociocultural factors on the technological and investment abilities and capabilities of the country is problematized, the features of the functioning and development of the Russian national innovative system are shown.

ЗАСТОСУВАННЯ КОНЦЕПЦІЇ “PATH DEPENDENCE” В ДОСЛІДЖЕННІ СТРУКТУРНОЇ ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЇ НАЦІОНАЛЬНОЇ ІННОВАЦІЙНОЇ СИСТЕМИ УКРАЇНИ

In recent years, the concept of path dependence has been increasingly used in economics as a tool to explain the transformation of institutions. The need to develop a quality NIS, regulation of its structural transformation recognizes the relevance of this study. The aim of the article is to study the process of structural transformation of Ukraine NIS on the basis of the concept of “path dependence”. The possibilities provided by the concept of “path dependence” in the study of structural transformation of the domestic national innovation system (NIS) are considered. It is noted that the dependence of previous development severely limits the ability to change development strategies, which are possible only at bifurcation points when systemic changes occur. An attempt is made to comprehend the problems of modern NIS through the prism of the 1990s. Explaining the current state of the system through the prism of the concept provided an opportunity to consider the nature of the negative phenomena inherent in today’s domestic innovation system (high share of public sector in financing R&D expenditures, weak links between business and higher education sectors, low innovation activity, low costs on R&D at the level of business entities, weak involvement in the global innovation competition of enterprises). Over the last 30 years, many new measures have been introduced, including support for universities, optimization of former branch research institutes, reform of the Academy of Sciences, creation of innovation infrastructure, creation of scientific funds. To stimulate links in the innovation system, a separate set of horizontal tools was created: technology platforms, innovation clusters, mobility promotion, project consortia between research institutes (universities) and companies, and more. However, the results of all these activities remain not impressive enough. The necessity to take into account the factors of historical succession when designing the development of the Ukrainian innovation system is proved. It is important to effectively use not only modern borrowed institutions, but also to modify the traditional institutions that have ensured the development of the country in previous periods, taking into account the challenges of the time.

Mathematical Simulations of Air Exchange Processes in Evacuated Tube Transport

The purpose of this research is to study theoretical aspects of the movement of a vehicle in an evacuated tube transport in conjunction with air exchange processes in a vacuum-free tube-type transport system. Tube-type transport systems with insulated internal cavities have a number of advantages over other means of delivering goods and passengers over long distances. However, for the movement of rolling stock in a pipeline (tunnel) at a high speed, it is necessary to use complex and expensive design solutions that can completely eliminate the undesirable influence of piston effects. One of such solutions is the Hyperloop-type evacuated tube transport systems. As an alternative solution, it is proposed to use a vacuum-free transport system, in which piston effects are leveled by using an external air exchange system. The study obtained theoretical results that confirm feasibility and effectiveness of the process of regulating these parameters for a vacuum-free method of reducing piston effects. The developed guidelines for the implementation of the process of regulating the parameters of the air exchange system ensure the achievement of target values of speed driving modes of the vehicle. The results of the use will improve the efficiency of train traffic control in a vacuum-free transport system, as well as replenish the base of theoretical knowledge necessary for further development of innovative transport systems.

Osteosynthesis devices in absorbable Magnesium alloy in comparison to standard ones: a Systematic Review on effectiveness and safety.

Background and aim of the work:Magnesium (Mg) is a metal physiologically present in bone tissue and essential for bone health. Mg-based alloys exhibit mechanical properties, namely density and strength, similar to human cortical bone. These features have been exploited for the development of osteosynthesis devices in biodegradable Mg-based alloys. Accordingly, the aim of this study is to rank the effectiveness and safety of Mg-based alloys applied in bone surgery in comparison to other suitable metals, focusing in particular on Mg superior biocompatibility and biodegradability.Methods:a systematic review of the literature was conducted including only primary research studies dealing with patients suffering from fractured or osteotomized bones fixed using Mg-based osteosynthesis devices.Results:literature revision suggested Mg-alloys holding comparable properties and side effects in comparison with titanium (Ti) screws, thus showing similar efficacy and safety. Particularly, the gas formation in the carpal bones was identified as the main side effect of the Mg-alloys, during the corrosion/degradation phase of Mg.Conclusions:according to the literature, the main advantages exploiting Mg-alloys for bone implants are related to their biocompatibility, bio-absorbability/-degradability, the lack of surgical removal, osteoconductivity and antibacterial activity. On the opposite, the main limitation of Mg-alloys is due to the poor mechanical resistance of small devices that lack of sufficient strength to withstand high forces. Therefore, an important future prospect could rely in the development of innovative hybrid systems aimed at fixing high load-bearing fractures, as well as in regenerative medicine by developing new Mg-based engineered scaffolds.

СИСТЕМА УПРАВЛІННЯ ІННОВАЦІЙНИМ РОЗВИТКОМ ПІДПРИЄМСТВА

The conceptual fundamentals of the management system of innovative development of the enterprise have been revealed in the article. In today’s business environment, innovation plays an important role in strengthening the enterprise’s competitive position in the market. Actualization of the innovative vector of development necessitates the development of an effective management system for innovative development of the enterprise. The purpose of the article is to develop conceptual provisions for the formation of a management system for innovative development of the enterprise in terms of increasing openness of the innovation process. To achieve it, we used the methods of theoretical generalization, analysis and synthesis, system approach. The successfulness of the implementation of innovative changes directly depends on the effectiveness of management of this process. Today, the most widespread is a systematic approach to management. It provides for the consideration of all elements of management activities in the relationship and interaction as a single system. The innovation management system is unique for each enterprise. It depends on the available innovation potential, profile of activity, frequency of innovation implementation, sources of innovative ideas and developments, type of organizational structure, etc. An important prerequisite for the intensification of enterprise innovation processes is the use of the concept of open innovations. The main components of the management system of innovative development are the subject, object and management mechanism, which includes goals, objectives, principles, methods and tools to influence the object of management. The management system of innovative development of the enterprise being an open system is influenced by factors of internal and external environments. The effectiveness of activities to ensure the innovative development of the enterprise depends on the level of organization of interaction in the overall management system of the enterprise. The results of scientific research can be used for activation of innovation processes at the enterprise level.

New aspects of innovation management in the conditions of economy transformation through the prism of a functional approach are highlighted. It is emphasized that a high level of efficiency of innovative progress is impossible without a high level of innovation management, which maintains the whole innovation process. The quality management system of innovative development of domestic enterprises will be determined by qualitative change features innovative management and compliance with the principles of intellectualization, dynamic, self-organization, self-regulation, self-development. It is proved that classical functions of management of planning, organizing, motivating and controlling, without changing its essential nature in an innovative way and semantic filling acquire certain features in modern realities. It is emphasized that forecasting of the future on the basis of clearly expressed tendencies is a problem of innovative management today, therefore model forecasting as a method of studying the state of phenomena and processes on the basis of revealed regularities and tendencies becomes the basic component of theory and practice. The quality of innovation management in this context will be determined by the spread level of smart innovations not only in the field of technology, but also in the managerial field. In this regard, the approach to building the organizational structure of the enterprise will change significantly, and the replacement of vertical-oriented structures come horizontal structures and connections that can develop the creative potential of the enterprise. In addition, popularization of blockchain technologies will facilitate the transition from hierarchical to flat model, where managerial decisions are made transparently. Planning and organization are inseparable from the effectiveness of information provision of innovative processes, which also determines the quality of innovation management. The information space is expanding on a global scale and is rapidly filling up, however, the lack of proper information and a complicated procedure for its processing complicate modeling of innovation processes, forecasting demand for innovative products, automatically increasing the risk of ineffective managerial decisions. Indicated that synchronous performance features and innovative management principles will harmonize the interests of corporate entities involved in the innovation process, and enhance innovation processes.

Теоретичні витоки управління розвитком інноваційного підприємництва

The development of any economic system involves the transformation of the basic characteristics of its participants. In this case, the development itself can be both traditional and innovative. Currently, it is important to consider the innovative type of development at the enterprise level, which means a purposeful process of finding ideas, preparing innovations and their implementation, to increase their efficiency, and for society - to increase needs, the state - to increase the competitiveness of national products in the international market. It is obvious that the development of innovative activity of the enterprise is one of the decisive factors of its successful development. The purpose of this study is a comprehensive study of the theoretical origins of management of innovative entrepreneurship, the formation of a systematic view of the features of innovation management of the enterprise in modern business conditions. A comprehensive study of the theoretical origins of management of innovative entrepreneurship development was carried out, in particular, the emergence of views on the essence of such concepts as “innovation”, “innovative enterprise”, “innovative entrepreneurship”, “development of innovative entrepreneurship” were analyzed in the article. The authors suggest their own interpretation of such categories taking into account the analysis of domestic and foreign approaches and theoretical provisions for this problems in the modern understanding. Also, a systematic presentation of the features of management of the innovative activity of an enterprise in modern economic conditions was formed. The authors believe that for successful management of innovative development of the enterprise there should be a "smart" management system of innovative development of the enterprise. The purpose of the IDE management is to increase the competitiveness of the enterprise - the stable market position for continuous development in a constantly changing external and internal environment. Features of managing the development of innovative entrepreneurship at the present stage are the following: the ability and readiness of the economic entity to positive change, progress; the sequence of management actions that realize the innovation potential; quantitative changes in the relevant "growth points"; qualitative changes based on cooperation and rivalry between market participants for better conditions of production, purchase and sale of goods. It should be noted that management of innovation entrepreneurship development should have the support of the state in the context of Ukraine's innovation policy. The prospects for further research are related to the improvement of the innovation entrepreneurship management system as a key element for increasing the competitiveness of modern enterprises in a constantly changing external and internal environment.

Networks as Drivers of National Innovative System Development in the Conditions of Globalization

Coordinated Development of Innovation System in China’s Yangtze River Economic Belt, a Demand and Supply Perspective

The Development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) is not only a major regional coordination development strategy in China but also a core carrier supporting China’s innovation-driven development. Under this background, this paper explored the evolution, spatial difference, and coordination development of the regional innovation system in the period of 2007 to 2017 from the demand and supply perspective. We found that, during the study period, the development level of the innovation demand subsystem (IDS) and innovation supply subsystem (ISS), as well as their coordinated development, all showed an increasing trend. The development gap of IDS and the coordinated development among cities in YREB was quite balanced, while there existed a large gap among cities in YREB in the development of ISS. The development of IDS was better than the development of ISS in most of the cities of YREB, indicating that the innovation development of cities in YREB needs supply-side structural reform urgently. Most cities in YREB were at the moderately or slightly uncoordinated development phase, and Shanghai was the only city with coordinated development between IDS and ISS. This paper enriches the regional innovation system from a new perspective, the demand and supply perspective, as well as providing suggestions for the coordinated development of the regional innovation system in YREB.

INNOVATIVE DISCOURSE OF HIGHER AND PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION IN THE EXPONENTIONAL TECHNOLOGIES AND THE NEW BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT

On the basis of the system analysis of the implementation in the Concept for the development of the national innovation system, developed and approved by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine in 2009, it is stated that its efficiency is rather low. It is established that the main reason for this is inconsistent and low effectiveness of state, educational, scientific and innovation policy. It is proved that Ukraine needs today a new systemic innovation development strategy that should combine the efforts of power, business, education, science and become a guarantor of dialogue between them. The place and role of the educational-scientific subsystem in the national strategy of innovation development are outlined and the main problems of higher education and vocational education in the context of the training of innovative-oriented specialists are identified. It is substantiated that domestic education, in particular, higher education, can become the most important indicator of the quality of life in society, react effectively to exponential technologies and promote technological change in the business environment by making five radical steps. Realizing them, Ukrainian society has a chance in the medium term to ensure the introduction of the latest innovative technologies and to become significantly closer to the level and way of organizing the life of developed countries.

The institutional support for an innovation cooperation in industry: the case of Poland

Research background: Innovative economy and the business environment are important factors in the socio-economic development of a country. In a knowledge-based society, economic processes (especially innovation activity) require a specific stimulus. This stimulus can be provided by business support organization, which have been present in the Polish economy since the 1990s.
 Purpose of the article: The main goal of the article is to assess the system impact of business support organizations on cooperation in the area of new solutions (product and process innovations) in industry in Poland.
 Methods: The research method which was used in the analysis was logit modelling. Cooperation in the area of new solutions with the supplier, recipient and competitor was established as a dependent variable and business support organizations as independent variable. The analysis using logistic regression was based on comparison two groups of enterprises: those that were service recipients of support organizations and those that did not belong to this group. In this way, it was possible to determine if the use of BSO services increased the chances for innovative cooperation in industry. The survey was conducted in 2013?2017 among 6284 industrial enterprises.
 Findings & Value added: The survey showed that business support organizations significantly and systematically influence the establishment of innovative cooperation. Recipients of support organizations twice more often cooperated with suppliers and recipients than entities that did not. Stimulation of cooperation with competitors by BSO was weaker than it was in the case of suppliers and recipients. The conducted study provided information on the level of development of the national innovation system in catching-up countries on the example of Poland. It was pointed out that in economically weak territories, one should focus on stimulating innovative activity as such, while in the developed ones should be transferred to more advanced forms, i.e. innovative cooperation.
